Grey Sweatshirt

Both the sweatshirt and the pants were thrifted, and I like them both a lot! I piled on the necklaces and 2 out of the 3 of them were also thrifted.
This is the last post for the month and have to say it's been my best month this year. Finally got some of my dormant physical creativity out, I am thankful and indebted.

Cropped Pants and Big Belt

It's Tuesday and I just watched the CNN interview with Zack De La Rocha and Tom Morello and the clip of the "Rage Against the Machine" concert last Friday night. Knew people who were there and heard it was the best "Rage" concert they'd ever been to, and we've been to several! Arizona deserves a kick in the balls for their elitest and racist attitude! Have to say this though, the "Immigration Issue" is finally front and center!

Bathing Suit

Went to the beach yesterday so I'm posting a bathing suit picture. Didn't think I had the nerve did you, yeah I was skeptical myself! Flew a kite, & built a sand castle but still haven't been able to get enough sun to tan my legs, which is the only part of my anatomy I actually try to tan. The sun just isn't cooperating this year.

Plaid Shorts

OK, went to the "Renegade Craft Fair" Saturday, it was great to see the crafts that are being produced these days. Truly handmade stuff, no imported mass produced crap, it was refreshing to see all the originality and fun imaginative ideas. I used to do craft fairs and this was very inspiring!

Dress with Leggings

It's Casual Friday again, and Boss is off so I wore the leggings! (first time to work). I hated the leggings trend at first but they're so comfortable. It's been a good day, I think I may have found a solution to some of my financial woes, keep your fingers crossed. Going tonight to an event, and am going to start blogging my evening wear as well. things are looking up! Finally.

Khaki with Eggplant

O.K. this top is a great color and I have an Adolfo hat that matches it! I'll have to show you that sometime. The outfit is somewhat plain but the necklace saved it. Stressing big time today, hoping for a positive development tonight. Sometimes you just have to do your best and hope things work out. I hate worrying about money!

Big Bow

I like this top, but always feel like it needs a beret. Anyway, trying to get back in the swing of things after having taken a bit of a vacation last week, but really needed to take advantage of a great situation that arose! Work is always there, sometimes you just need to have some fun to enable you to face your daily challenges with a positive attitude.

More Gold

Sorry for not having blogged this week, but have been really busy, Gold again but this time with capris. The weather is finally scorching, so I'm really hoping to go to the beach this weekend. A swimsuit picture would be great just don't know if I have the nerve!

Leggings & Boots

It's Saturday and I'm in a very casual mood! The weather is still strange but no complaints. Worked today on my own projects, this coming week I plan to get back into my art again, but have so many work related things to do, that may be wishful thinking!

Levi's

It's Friday again, and this has been a hell of a week! I've had a project that's kept me busy every single day, but have had more fun than I've had in a very long time. Found these 518's, and was really jazzed because they fit so well, even in the length. Cost about $6.00, the top is nude pink silk, also thrifted. Remember to always have fun people, or else what's the point!

Grey Dress

The weather is still pretty gloomy in the mornings ergo the tweed dress, but the afternoons are pretty. The dress wasn't thrifted, but is from last year, however the jewelry all was!

Red Accessories

I know this is intense for 2 days after the 4th of July but it rained this morning, give me a break. The red accessories really saved the day, and even though I don't look it, I ended the day in an extremely happy mood!
